Yesterday was the estimated due date. Well, the day passed without a birth of Sam or any other pre-labor indications. The Wife is still doing well and keeps waddling along. Hopefully she can stop imitating penguins and start walking like a normal person soon. She thinks Sam will be born this weekend, I'm leaning more towards the middle of next week. I hope she is right, I am eager to meet the baby and get this family life rolling for real. If no Sam is born by Thursday next week, the midwives will start discussing induction. That would suck, induction and the use of other "aggressive" methods is something we want to avoid if possible.
As we are getting closer to the end of pregnancy, it feels like the last nine months have moved along quickly and that it was yesterday when we found out we are having a Samster. The coming nine months will be even quicker, but I am looking forward to it!
Did you see the poll? 50 percent for girl, 50 percent for boy... so back to square one??
ReplyDeleteStrangers on the other hand are squarely on team boy. I think it is because my belly is so large.
Unrelated, without a baby, maternity leave is quite boring.
